Draft Grade — Buccaneers
Overall

FutureB
The Buccaneers lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story. The Buccaneers put a flag in the ground for Dwight McGlothern, 34 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.
The Solomon pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman and wide receiver. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Watson.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Kool-Aid McKinstry
In No. 26 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value.
Pick38
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at the 38th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Guyton
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyler Guyton. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick89
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
A slide stopped in pick No. 89, with Cooper Beebe worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick94
Rnd3
Audric Estime
Audric Estime at the 94th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick98
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
No edge and no loss on Khyree Jackson in Round 3, Pick 35; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick100
Rnd3
Javon Solomon
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Javon Solomon at OLB-EDGE with interior defensive lineman and wide receiver open.
Pick102
Rnd4
Jaden Hicks
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 102 on Jaden Hicks with interior defensive lineman and wide receiver unsolved.
Pick105
Rnd4
Mohamed Kamara
A reach on Mohamed Kamara in Round 4, Pick 5; the board had better options right there. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110
Rnd4
Javon Foster
They liked Javon Foster enough to skip the value, taking him in the 110th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick142
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Joe Milton III well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick143
Rnd5
Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in pick No. 143 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick208
Rnd6
Erick All
They did well to land Erick All in the Round 6 slot, just ahead of his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick213
Rnd6
Trevor Keegan
A reach for Trevor Keegan in pick 213; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick215
Rnd6
Dwight McGlothern
Value said wait; Dwight McGlothern in Round 6, Pick 40 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick248
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
The board had Nathaniel Watson higher than the 248th overall pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
